Sky Pilot

Intro (acapella):
He blesses the boys as they stand in line
They smell of gun grease and their bayonets they shine
He's there to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted, he's a good holy man
{band enters}

(man)
Chorus:
BbEbBb
Sky... pilot
BbEbBb
Sky... pilot
Cm Bb
How high can you fly
CmBb
You'll never (never) (never) reach the sky
Verse 1:
CmEb
He smiles at the young soldiers, tells them it's all right
CmEb
He knows of their fear in the forthcoming flight
CmEb
Soon there'll be blood and many will die
CmF
Mothers and fathers back home they will cry
{repeat Chorus}
Verse 2:
He mumbles a prayer and it ends with a smile
The order is given, they move down the line
But he stay'll {sic} behind and he'll meditate
But it won't stop the bleeding or ease the hate
Verse 3:
And the young men move out into the battle zone
He feels good, with God you're never alone
He feels so tired and he lays on his bed
Hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said
{repeat Chorus}

Verse 4:
You're soldiers of God, you must understand
The fate of your country is in your young hands
May God give you strength, do your job real well
If it all was worth it, only time it will tell
Verse 5:
In the morning they returned with tears in their eyes
The stench of death drifts up to the skies
A young soldier so ill looks at the Sky Pilot
Remembers the words, "Thou shalt not kill"
{repeat Chorus, 2X}
Coda {repeat to fade}:
CmEbBb
You'll never (never) (never) reach the sky
